Lyrics — Lunar Debt
The radio plays songs from someone else
A payphone rings in rooms that don't exist
The radio plays songs from someone else
Rust collects where fingerprints should be
A diesel heart pumps mercury and rain
She writes her will in disappearing ink
Counting shadows on the basement stairs
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The clocks all stopped at quarter past decay
The ceiling drips with questions left on read
He trades his coat for silence and a key
The radio plays songs from someone else
